Relvar Ellipta

Relvar Ellipta, a medicine used to treat severe asthma as well as chronic obstructive lung diseases (COPD), like emphysema or chronic bronchitis, is called.

Relvar Ellipta is used to treat asthma. It prevents attacks of breathing difficulties and reduces flare-ups when treating chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD). There are two doses of the inhaler. The lower one can be used to treat asthma, while the higher one should only be used for COPD.

The medication's active ingredients help to keep the airways open in the lungs, making it easier to allow air in and for normal breathing. Corticosteroids are also included in the medication to reduce inflammation and swelling.

Relvar Ellipta can only be prescribed by a doctor. Follow the instructions of your doctor. Also, make sure to read the information leaflet in the medication package.

Before you start taking this medication, your doctor or nurse will show you how to use the inhaler properly. There is a mouthpiece on the top of the inhaler, a cover to keep it from being used and a counter at the front that shows how many doses remain. The inhaler is already designed to release the right amount of medication so you don't need to shake it before using it.

Hold the inhaler upright until you hear a click. Take a deep breath and exhale. Next, place the inhaler in front of your mouth.

Take a deep, steady inhale and hold it for at least 30 seconds. Take the inhaler out of your mouth and exhale slowly. After using the inhaler, replace the cover and wipe it clean with dry tissue. After using the medication, clean your mouth and brush your teeth.

Relvar Ellipta is a combination of active ingredients fluticasone furoate (92 micrograms) and vilanterol (184 micrograms) per delivered dose.

One inhalation per day is the recommended dose for COPD or asthma. This should be taken simultaneously (the medicine lasts 24 hours). Your doctor may recommend a stronger inhaler if your asthma is severe. However, this should not be used for COPD. Follow your doctor's instructions and never take a different dose of inhaler unless instructed to.

The dose indicator counts down each time you use your inhaler. If the numbers drop, it is important to visit your doctor for a replacement.

You should not forget to take your Relvar Ellipta. However, skip the missed dose and go straight on to the next one. Do not double your dose to make up the one you missed.

You should not take more Relvar Ellipta than you are supposed to. Contact your doctor or pharmacist immediately. Overdose can cause your heart to beat faster, shake more, and even have headaches.
